And that one was arguably just incredibly bad luck. Had no one been in that seat it probably wouldn't have been a fatality.

I'm more terrified on my 10 minute commute to the office than I ever am on a US airline and I fly almost weekly. Sitting on an E175 as we speak.

I've only flown on the E175 once and I actually really liked it for how quiet it was.

It's a dope little jet and I usually get upgraded so I love the single first class seats.

This particular route used to be covered by a Dash 8 until 5-6 years ago so the Embraer was like going from Kia to a Rolls Royce.

I think the quietest I've been on was an A321neo but yeah the 175 is definitely my preferred regional jet. Fuck all CRJs, especially the 200.
